How as we enter this phase of life have a different sort of energy. It's more of a kind of low burning energy that sustains for longer and can take us on a longer journey 23.37

  • Have a ritual to recognize and celebrate that you are postmenopausal and in this new lane. 
  • Explore the question, Who am I? How am I in this new Lane? And how do I want to bring myself to the world in this part of my life?
